DAVENPORT, IOWA. 



A FROGRKSSI\'l-". ami important cit\- in Scott County, of which it is 
the judicial scat, locatctl on tho west bank of the Mississippi River, 
175 miles east of Des Moines, 180 west of Chicago, and 329 from St. 
Louis. It is the fourth largest city in the State, and in commercial 
importance ranks second to none. Its shipping facilities, which are 
excellent, are afforded by the C, R. I. & 1'.. the C, M. & St. 1'., and 
the H., C. R. & N. R)''s, which have ile[)()ts here. During seven months 
in the year a large portion of the shipments to and from Davenport are 
made by way of the ri\'er, there being two dailj- lines of steamers 
between St. Louis and St.l'aul, besides several steamers engaged in 
the local traffic. 

Opjjosite Da\enp<>rt and tributary to it are the cities of Rock Island 
with 13,000 inhabitants, and Moline, the largest manufacturing town in 
the West, and three miles south is Milan, another manufacturing place. 
These four cities combined, and virtuallj- forming only one settlement, ag- 
gregate over 70,000 inhabitants. 

The city has a very large jobbing trade, .uul manufactures are numer- 
ous. There are here five saw mills, cutting on an average 1,000.000 feet 
per day ; three agricultural implement works, glucose factories, foundries 
and machine shops, cigar factories, boiler works, box factories, fi\e brew- 
eries, a number of brick yards, candy and cracker factories, two grain ele- 
vators, three flour mills, two horse collar factories, lumber yards, show 
case, churn, ladder, furniture, window shade, and sash, door and blind 
factories, plow works, a rope walk, oat-meal and wooic-n mills, a pottery, 
rubber stamp works, flour sack manufactory, cutlerj' works, refrigerator 
works, three bottling works, carpet loom manufactories, a pump and pipe 
factor)-, oscillator thresher factor}-, marble works, a paper bo.\ factory, a 
piano factory, soap and lard oil factories, spice mills, carriage and wagon 
works, two washing machine factories, electric motor factory, vinegar 
works, second largest electric railway system in the L^nited States, fine 
water works, now putting in the largest filtering plant in the world, and 
manj' more too numerous to mention in the brief space allowed for 
this sketch. 

Davenport has for j'ears had the well deser\ed reputation of having 
the best schools in the state. The high and training schools arc attended 
b)- a number of pupils from t)ther places. The public schools comprise 
ten grammar schools, a high and a training school. There are quite a

luiniber of private schools, among others the Davenport Business College, 
Iowa Commercial College, Griswold College, Ida Institute, Kemper Hall 
.1 boys' school), St. Ambrose Seminary (a boys' school), St. Katharine's 
ilall, ami the y\cademy of the Immaculate Conception, the two latter be- 
ing ladies' boarding schools of the highest rank. 

The Academy of Sciences and the public librarj-, both established and 
maintained by the liberality of citizens, are model institutions of their 
kind ; the former has a most complete collection of relics of the mound 
builders, and numbers among its corresponding members some of the 
most eminent scientists of the da)-. The Davenport lousiness Men's Asso- 
ciation, with a membership of 225, has done a splendid work in advancing 
the city's interests in ever}- direction. 

The churches are numerous, and comprise all the principal religious 
denominations. There are first-class hotels, four national and three sav- 
ings banks with an aggregate capital and surplus of $1,500,000, and the 
learned professions and various branches of commerce are well represented. 

The Central Union Telc|)h()nc Company, with head-quarters at Daven- 
port, now embraces all towns within a radius of 75 miles, anil the com- 
pany is in a flourishing condition. 

The following papers are published and keep the citizens informed on 
all current topics of interest: The Tribune, Democrat-Gazette, Der Deiii- 
okrat, and Times, dailj- and weeklj- ; the Iowa Messenger, hnva Reform, 
St emeu funnier. Advaiiee, fitter-State Press, and Nortfnve stern News, 
weekl)- ; the f'amalien Journal, and Iowa Cfiurcfiman, monthly, and sev- 
eral other monthly publications. 

Davenport has a steady, healthy growth. Handsome brick blocks and 
private residences are going up in all parts of the city, and the value of 
real estate is increasing steadily, though still far cheaper than any city in 
the West, incluiling those with half the population, thus affording the 
finest opening for capitalists to invest in property bound to advance. Thi- 
rate of taxation here in a city of 30,000 inhabitants is lower than any 
other place of 10,000 inhabitants in Iowa, which fact should induce those 
seeking a location ft>r new enterprises to choose Davenport. 

The city, covering nearlj- five square miles, is traversed in every direc- 
tion by street cars, enabling business men to reach their stores and offices 
(piickl)- from any part of the town. The central Street Railway has 
adopted the electric system, which is proving a great success, having in- 
creased the business of the road fully 60 per cent. A syndicate of Chi- 
cago capitalists has purcha.sed the City Street Railway, and the Bridge, 
Second Street and Northwest Davenport Railway, and the franchise for 
the railway over the government bridge, and also the two leading lines in 
Rock Island, and have consolidated them under one management.

'"I"'! IK I^land i>f Ruck Island is about two and three quarters miles long (u>m 

east to west, anil fruin one-quarter to thrcc(|uarters of a mile wi<lc; has an 

elevation of from seventeen to twenty-three feet atiove t le highest water mark, and 

contains an area of nine hundretl aiul seventy acres. The ground rests u|Mjn a 

fotindation of gray magnesian limestone, which in a few places crops out to the 

surface, but is generally covered with from one to eight feet of earth, upon which 

the most luxuriant forest of ash, elm. linden, hi<:kor)' and walnut grew seventy 

It was the most beautiful islan«l in the upper Missi-- - i 

Indians elected it their garilen place of resort an: 

liiil The forest was filled with game and birds, of which till) species liad sur- 
\ .1.1 s<ime three years ago; it furnished them with berries, plums, ap les, and 
nuts in abundance; the by-rushing stream supplied them with fish, ami the great 
spirit living in the cave of rocks took care of it. 

In September, 1815, the Kighth regiment of I'nited States infantry was or 
tiered from St. Louis here to build Kort Armstrong, which was completed in iSi;. 
It was occupied by a garrison until 1836, when it was evacuated, but remained in 
charge of government Indian agents until 1S40, when an ordnance de|Mit was es- 
tablished, and continuetl until 1845, when the stores were removed to St. Louis 
Arsenal. Thereafter a civil agent employed by the war depirtment had it in 
charge until the National Arsenal was established. 

The subject of a western armory was much talked of in 1840 by the inhabit 
ants of Davenport. The islanil was prominent as afforilmg the best position for 
its establishment; fuel in abundance, immense water-power, facilities for shipment 
of material, the healthfulncss of the location, its connection by the Mississippi with 
important places and the seaboard, were reasons justly urged for the selection of 
this point. 

On September 4th, 1861, the City Council of l)aven|M>rt ap|)oiiUed a ( ommiltee 
to procceil, with the proper lommittees apiHtinted by the cities of kock Islanil and 
Moline, to Washngton to urge the establishment of an arsenal on the island, and 
appro|)riated for that purpose $100; November 6th, $500; February 5th, 1S6?. 
$250. and on July nth, 1862. congress located the National .Arsenal on Rock 
Island and appropriated $100,000 for the pur[H)se. 

The principal buildings are the ten great shops, in two rows of five shops each, 
n.iined after the letters designating the companies of a regiment in the army, vi/ 
Shcps A, (.', K, G, and I on the south side of the main avenue, designed for the 
arsenal, and H. O. K, H, and K on the north side of the mam avenue, for the ar 
iiiory. Kach building consists of two parallel wings Oo.xjoo feet, 90 feet apart, 
leaving an interior court of 90x238 feet, and covering an area of a little more than 
one acre. 

A water-power of nearly 4,000 horse-power has also been constructed by the 
government. Here it is intended to manufacture small arms and equipments for 
the infantry, cavalry, and artillery; all ammunition of every kind for cannon, rille, 
carbine and pistol, and also rockets; all cannon and gun cartridges for field, siege, 
garrison, mountain and prairie service, and all e(|uipnients for the coa.st. consisting 
of h.i .Is, implements, battery-wagons, and forges More than one-half of 

ihc I Is for the western army are now manufactured here, such as the 

scores ol aUiiles that enter into horse equipments, infantry equipnunts. and cav- 
alrv equipments. This work gives employment to about ninety hands the year 
around.

ROCK ISLAND, ILL. 



O (JCK. ISLAND is situated on the south-east bank of the Mississippi River, 
•^^ in the State of Illinois, at the foot of the "Upper Rapids" and at the 
junction of Rock River with the Mississippi. It is opi)osile the island of Rock 
Island, on which the largest armory in the world is located. The surrounding 
country is noted for its beautiful scenery, and during the life-time of the noted 
chief. Black Hawk, was the favorite residence of his tribes. 

Its advantages for manufucturing are unexcelled. In the surrounding coun- 
ties are inexhautsible beds of coal, and also two of the largest water-])Owers in 
the State are located here : one at the southern limits of the city, and the other 
at the eastern, insuring to manufactories the cheapest power. It is also the 
home of skilled workmen of every kind, so that any industry locating here 
-would have no difficulty in securing skilled labor at low wages. From twelve 
different directions, five of the largest railway companies in the country run 
liieir trains to this center, so that, with freight rates limited by water competiliou 
on the Mississippi River, Rock River, and the Hennepin Canal, it has an over- 
whelming aiivantage as a shipping jjoint; and the numerous passenger trains run- 
ning over these lines makes it a favorite residence for traveling salesmen. 

Its chief educational features consist of a fine system of public schools, a 
magnificent high-school, and Augustana College and Theological Seminary, 
which latter institution has a yearly attendance of about 500 students, affording 
a good education in the classics, sciences, and business, having also a commer- 
cial course. It has also a large free public library. 

The leailing manufncturing interests are: of lund)er, Weyerhauser & Denkman, 
and the great Rock Island Lumber and Manufacturing Company, this city being 
the home of the last-named com]jany, which is the largest and wealthiest corpor- 
ation of its kind in the world, owning many mills on the "Upper Mississippi;" 
of iron goods, the Rock Island Stove Works. Among other manufacturing cor- 
porations and companies of note, are the Rock Island Plow Company, Graham 
Cotton Mills, Kahlke Brothers' Marine Railway and Boat Yards, Warnock & 
Ralston's .Soa|) Factory, Fleming iV Co.'s Canning Company, J. G. Gilmor's I'ork 
Packing Establishment, George Wagner's .Atlantic Brewery, I. Huber's City 
Brewery Company, Raible & Stengel's Brewery, The John Volk Manufacturing 
Company, The National Clay Co., The Brush Electric Light Company, Mer- 
chant's Electric Light Company, and Rock Island Gas Company. 

Rock Island has a complete system of electric street cars, com])rising three 
lines; street car service between this city and Milan, three miles south, and two 
lines of electric cars between it and Moline, three miles miles east, and a third 
line nearing com])letion. Its streets are being rapidly paved with brick and its 
sewerage is good. 

Most of its population own their own homes, or are paying for them by a 
system of monthly payments (amounting to little more than the rental value) 
thriiugh local building and loan associations, of which we have two, the Rock 
Island Building and Loan Association, and Black Hawk Homestead Association. 
Taking it all in all we know of no other city with so many natural advan- 
tages, so beautifully located, and with its financial interests on so firm a founda- 
tion, in all the great North-west. Its growth is steady and sure, bursting, as it 
were, past the barriers that have been ])laceil about it by uKjnopolied land own- 
ers who have sought from selfish motives to hem it in, until now its future as one 
of the leailing commercial centres of the North-west can no longer be doubted.

MOLINE, ILL. 



PRE-EMINENTLY A MANUFACTURING CITY. 

TV yrOLINE, the City of Mills, is located in Western Illinois, on the south hank 
■^ ■*■ of the Mississippi River, which liere for a few miles lakes its course in a 
westerly direction. The site is one of exceeding beauty, owing to the peculiar 
topography of the country, which imparts to the scenery great variety. Table- 
land, plateau, bluff ranges, with the grand sweeps of the mighty river, give a di- 
versity which is unusual in the West, and which is charming and restful. 

By rail, the city is 178 miles west of Chicago, 322 east of Omaha, 246 north 
of St. Louis, 345 south of Minneapolis, 342 from Kansas City, to all of wliich it 
has direct railway service. 

The city has a population (April isth, 1891) of 13,000, and is growing at 
the rate of 1,000 to 2,000 per year. 

Three of the great railroad systems of the country, and the Mississippi River, 
ive our manufacturers and merchants easy access to every portion of the world; 
and few points offer superior shipping facilities. Power, building materials antl 
fuel are convenient, abundant, and cheap; to which may be added the advantage 
of a class of laborers composed mainly of industrious, thrifty, home-loving, God- 
fearing Swedes, opposed to strikes and with no capacity for making mischief. 

The city possesses all that is desirable as a residence locality: beautiful scen- 
rry, excellent schools, free public library, numerous churches, good sanitary 
c cinditions, etc. 

Moline is a manufacturing city — more entirely so than any other city in the 
West. Three great establishments make agricultural implements, three others, 
wagons, carriages, buggies, etc., while many other establishments are devoted to 
lumber, j)aper-ware, flour-mill and elevator machinery, steam boilers, engines 
and machinery, elevators, cigars, governors, malleable iron, paper, pipe organs, 
pumjis, saddlers' hardware, scales, reed organs, electric light, gas and coke, etc. 

In manufacturing there is used an aggregate capital of six and a half millions. 
In 1.S90 there was a volume of business amounting to $9,407,552, an increase of 
$1,727,917 over 1889. Total paid for wages was $2,515,665, an increase of 
''.?'^.1'74S over previous year. Number of emjjloyes 5,283, an increase of 893 
■ ver 1889. At the rate of increase manifested during the past two or three 
years, the manufacturing business of the city doubles itself every four years.
